In fact, the DPRK News Service, which first tweeted in July 2009, is the work of a West Coast data analyst and a North Carolina attorney who also blog at Popehat.com, a self-described ā€œgroup complaint about law, liberty, and leisureā€ started in 2004 by former federal prosecutor Ken White. The pair, Derrick (data analyst) and Patrick (attorney), prefer not to reveal their last names publicly, going by, variously, Patrick Popehat, Derrick Popehat, Patrick Nonwhite, @NonWhiteHat, and @NinjaDerrick. They shared their thoughts on this latest episode with The Daily Beast, via email.

And if you believe any of that, Sarah has a bridge in NYC she’ll sell you cheap. Don’t want a bridge? How about some waterfront land in Florida?

So it’s fake news but the good kind. Got it.

@sniffit Speculation is there’s some neurological going on which we’ll never be told about but it would account for the hugging and trying to keep shaking or tremors visible.

I guarantee that the WH is on pins and needles, hoping and praying, that Donald has thumb cramps today and doesn’t start tweeting about this.

And yes, this is going down entirely as predicted. Trump is way too far out in front in his desperation to receive adoring coverage. And NK is playing him like a fiddle. He will be desperate to offer them everything they want in return for nothing, so he can claim victory.

Seriously. Is this the best message they can come up with?

Interesting idea. Sort of a rabbit hole though because it presents a chicken and egg problem. There are conditions, like Parkinson’s, that could be the cause, but it could also be tardive dyskinesia from medication taken for an underlying condition…most often antipsychotics over a long period of time haha

Actually dovetails with the Heath Ledger as the Joker reference I suppose. The way he kept licking his lips was suggestive of that kind of tardive dyskinesia (although I heard it was something Ledger had a habit of doing in real life too, but he exaggerated it for the performance).

It’s almost like North Korea played Trump so that they’d gain international legitimacy by pretending to value peace. Sorry… it’s exactly like that.
